The Centrosaurus gets the name "Sharp Pointed Lizard" because of its long pointed nasal horn. The horned "frill" on its head was most likely used to attract a mate. The single horn was its only source of defense. It is believed that Centrosaurus traveled in herds. These dinosaurs lived about 76 million years ago!
